《Captain Critiques: A Grumpy Pirate Review Book》How This Works
Advertisement
A critique is a detailed account of someone's opinion based on what they have read.
In my personal opinion, I prefer writing critiques which focus on plot NOT on punctuation so if you want someone to point out every full stop and comma you missed, please go and find someone else.
That aside, I will help with spelling/word placement/setentence structure where I can. I'm not perfect, I use way too many commas myself but if your book is something along the lines of:
'she went to the shops only to find she had been pushed down the escalator by an angry rabbit who wanted to eat the clothes she had just bought and its owner was laughing until he fell over and then they all died'
See this? NO. No matter what your blurb is like I won't even bother with this. Sorry, but I can't read an entire chapter of no full stops, capital letters and a continuous stream of words, text speak or not.
I know I used to write like that too but you need to learn on your own before asking for in depth critiques. You may not like using punctuation but that doesn't mean it ain't necessary.
Practice helps improve.
* I like to inline comment using the app i.e. comment on individual sentences/words by highlighting them and commenting.
If you prefer just an overall critique via comment/PM or even posted on my book then please let me know.
*I will read as many or as little chapters as I like. E.g. 1 - 5 chapters
If I end up reading past five chapters please do NOT complain and say that you never asked for this critique.
You did.
The extra will either be because I have more to say or that I enjoy your book. This happens on RARE occassions so please don't complain if I happen to comment more on other people's.

* If I accept your critique I will critique FIRST. You need to wait until I am finished before I provide you with what payment that needs to be done. Please wait for me to contact you. Do not jump the gun and go first. It will ruin the way I do things and will make me want to reject the critique.
*I will use the tag #Captain's_Critiques or just #C.C before every comment so you know I'm critiquing.
*I have other commitments such as animation, book clubs, my own stories, possibly a job so PLEASE don't rush me. If I am late or behind or unable to critique I will inform YOU.
*As this is for my own entertainment/torture I will tell you what the possible payment is when I complete the critique.
If you agree to the critique, you agree to the payment.
If you actually read all this, the password is: Rum Is Good
